A list of some things I did/do when I set up a new Proxmox instance so I can keep track for future problem solving/etc.

/sbin/zpool create -o ashift=12 pool1 raidz /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-35000cca012204e74 /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-35000c50095fd533f /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-35000c5009603e45f

Add the -f tag if the drives are slightly different capacities or whatever.

So I don't have to go to port 8006 anymore.
